OUGD505: Product, Range and Distribution: Mental Health Resources


After going into a medical centre, there wasn't much information about mental health wellbeing. There was one leaflet about stress, depression and anxiety but if someone were to read that and didn't know if they were suffering from mental ill health, it wouldn't be useful to them. It doesn't really inform someone about mental health but does offer help if you do suffer. In the Children's Health section, there was nothing about child mental wellbeing or one for adults informing them about child mental wellbeing.

Learning about mental health wellbeing is optional by researching it online. There isn't really anywhere you can go that offers advice about mental health unless you actively look for it online. There are many websites and charities that offer help and support. The charities allows you to understand how to cope, look out for someone and understand mental health. However, not everyone will or can have access to the internet therefore they may feel isolated if they don't speak to someone or don't have any information about it as it would mainly be online.
